EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Nothing has come easy for the New York Giants this season, even the games they are supposed to win.

The difference this year is they are winning the close games, a big change from previous seasons.

Eli Manning threw a go-ahead 15-yard touchdown pass to rookie Sterling Shepard in the third quarter as the Giants rallied for their fifth straight win with a 22-16 decision Sunday over the Chicago Bears in a gusty MetLife Stadium.

New York (7-3) remains two games behind the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East.
